The server has two onboard port, and one quad port adapter.
cat /etc/modules.conf
alias eth0 tg3
alias eth1 tg3
alias eth2 e1000
alias eth3 e1000
alias eth4 e1000
alias eth5 e1000
Now I added a single port broadcom card and updated /etc/modules.conf with
alias eth6 tg3
After rebooting, the "tg3" modules loads first, and find eth0, eth1 and eth2 (the new card). Then, e1000 loads, and finds eth2-6. Basically, my quad card ports changes from eth2-5 to eth3-6.
My original firewall config that is based on eth2-5 won't work anymore.
What's the best way to "fix" this?
